A novel, reliable, easy-to-install cable connector requiring a combination of push-on force with minimal torque for proper clamping and sealing to a target port is provided. Such a connector device includes a rubber element that encircles metal contact fingers and which is compressible through tightening of a hand-operable nut to secure contact between the metal contact fingers and the target port. The device also includes a contact basket with at least one cut-out portion that, upon tightening of the nut noted above, deforms into latching engagement with the external threads of the subject port. In such a manner, the inventive cable connector provides a highly effective apparatus for signal transfer, reduced interference and noise ingress, and reliable moisture prevention. A method of providing a signal connection and transfer in a cable system is also encompassed within this invention. |
